Tuesday’s MTN FA Cup Round 64 match between Asante Kotoko and Nations FC, local rivals, ended in a 4-2 victory for the former at Baba Yara Stadium thanks to an outstanding performance as they progress to the round of 32.
Richmond Lamptey scored a brace in the first half, which was crucial to Kotoko’s triumph. With one goal apiece, his teammates Steven Mukwala and Isaac Oppong also made significant impact.
Nations FC failed to improve upon their subpar performance even though they did score two consolation goals. Given that his team didn’t perform to expectations, their coach Kassim Mingle’s pregame remarks appeared to be ineffective.
In light of this outcome, Kotoko will continue to play in both the league and cup competitions, while Nations FC must now concentrate solely on the Ghana Premier League.
